This Is My Glasgow<p>One of the rather wonderful caryatids above one of the George Square entrances to Merchants' House in Glasgow. It was scupted by James Young and was created in the 1870s. The coat of arms at her base is that of the City of Glasgow.</p><p><a href="https://mastodon.scot/tags/glasgow" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>glasgow</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.scot/tags/architecture" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>architecture</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.scot/tags/glasgowbuildings" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>glasgowbuildings</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.scot/tags/sculpture" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>sculpture</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.scot/tags/georgesquare" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>georgesquare</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.scot/tags/architecturephotography" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>architecturephotography</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.scot/tags/caryatid" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>caryatid</span></a></p>
This Is My Glasgow<p>I love these Caryatids holding up an oriel window on the West George Street facade of the Merchants' House in central Glasgow. They just look so much more relaxed than most similar sculptures.</p><p><a href="https://mastodon.scot/tags/glasgow" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>glasgow</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.scot/tags/architecture" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>architecture</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.scot/tags/caryatid" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>caryatid</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.scot/tags/sculpture" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>sculpture</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.scot/tags/glasgowbuildings" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>glasgowbuildings</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.scot/tags/merchantshouse" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>merchantshouse</span></a></p>
